This overly bureaucratic prioritization, and the outrage over a few undeserving people cutting ahead (which I don't support but the harm is much less than all this) will likely do more damage to those in high-risk categories than the actual cutting in line. Roll it the @#!! out.https://twitter.com/polly/status/1348464494108954626 …

I get a lot of push-back on this but I'll say this again. Trust people & don't focus on the occasional cutting in line. A vaccine is a vaccine, and the worst scenario is not incorrect order but slow rollout and wasted vaccines. Remove the bureaucracy and complicated verification.

This is the final, terrible mistake of our pandemic policy, and we're going to regret this one the most, probably. And most of our mistakes go back to the same problem: not trusting people and being bureaucratic, narrow-minded, slow to react rather than proactive and fast.

Rough tracking: we vaccinated around 200,000 people yesterday. We have more than that many *confirmed cases* each day—and that's an under count. Probably ~one million new infections per day. We reportedly have ~40 million vaccines sitting around in freezers! This is a travesty.

Right now, all the "X vaccinated the wrong people" outrage is directly contributing to terrible outcomes. The misguided outrage—outdoors, people with masks under their noses, beaches, etc.—has been the bane of our response this pandemic. Focus on action.https://twitter.com/JenniferNuzzo/status/1348618280764907525 …

Trying to decide if 'authority' or 'trust' is the most important word in this tweet. Gonna go with 'trust', but it's a near thing

OTOH: When I read of self-entitled rich turds cutting in line, I start fantasizing about a GoFundMe to hire big game hunters to go after 'em. No argument on urgency here, but I do think you under-estimate degree of social damage wrought by that kind of Leona Helmsley crap.
